We’ve built a high-performance, low-latency, global network employing routers, switches, servers, and fibre optics. On top of our custom network stack is the heart of our business -- our software trading algorithms. The software algorithms process millions of streamlined bits of data and make trading decisions in real-time, tens of thousand times per day.

We are looking for a Trader to work out of our London office on a full-time basis.

A strong interest in trading the financial markets

The ability to handle pressure in times of uncertainty

An inquisitive and confident personality; someone detail-oriented who prepares for his responsibilities diligently

Good communication skills (both verbal and written) for working with other traders, trade groups, developers, and quants

Experience working in regulated environments; for instance, according to FCA and MiFID (now MiFID II) requirements would be beneficial

The package:

We pride ourselves on being in a people’s business. We recognise and value the highly-skilled individuals that form our expert team by continually investing in their personal and professional development. Once you join us, you will receive a competitive core salary plus other benefits.
